Joanna Ho, New York Times bestselling author of Eyes That Kiss in the Corners, returns with another sweet, funny picture book about summertime outdoor adventures and the unforgettable memories often made along the way.

Mama’s decided it’s time for their next big outdoor adventure, but Oliver’s not so sure.

He's no fan of bazillion-mile, brain-melting car rides, sleeping someplace with bears, bugs, and bats, or the sticky, icky food! Blech!

Mama may be convinced that memories are best made outdoors, but Oliver’s determined to make this adventure his last. But is it all that bad? After hide n’ seek, hiking, and s’mores, Oliver realizes that there just might be fun times and unforgettable moments to treasure after all.

New York Times bestselling author Joanna Ho returns with another touching and hilarious story, illustrated by the talented Thaís Mesquita, that highlights nature and family, and reminds us that the best views are the ones we share with those we love.
